You can now watch a trailer that provides a quick look at some of the update's content. Check out that video below.

More details about The Cartographer's Gift will be announced later this month, but here's what we know about it so far. The update introduces the following content:

  • Forge mode
  • Warzone map: Battle of Noctus
  • Arena map: Overgrowth
  • Big Team Battle maps: Antifreeze and Burial Mounds
  • More than 30 new Reqs for armor, weapons, and emblems
